Evaluation of complications in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis following Total Proctocolectomy with Ileal Pouch-Anal Anastomosis versus Subtotal Colectomy
Authors: K. Dunleavy, G. Forde, P. Santiago, W. S. Harmsen, N. Mckenna, S. Shawki, L. Raffals
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Aims Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) have higher colorectal cancer risk. Total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the preferred surgery for medically refractory disease or dysplasia/neoplasia. It is unclear if subtotal colectomy with ileocolonic or ileorectal anastomosis is a safe alternative with comparable complications. We aimed to describe inflammatory, surgical, and neoplastic outcomes following IPAA vs. subtotal colectomy in IBD-PSC patients.

Endoscopic submucosal resection with adaptative traction device: a new strategy to facilitate resection in lesions with a suspicion of deep focal invasion
Authors: L. J. Masgnaux, J. Grimaldi, J. Rivory, T. Wallenhorst, R. Legros, J. Jacques, P. Mathieu
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text ESD is potentially curative for T1 colorectal cancer under certain conditions. Is it currently being studied for colonic lesions displaying a focal (<15 mm) deep invasive patern (FDIP), as classified with Sano’s and Kudo’s patterns. A Sano IIIb or Kudo Vn predict a focal invasion > 1000 µm and need surgical treatment, wheareas <1000µm are considered curative resections. An important challenge regarding diagnostic ESD is the frequent fibrosis encountered. We believe that the strong traction provided by an adaptive traction device (A-TRACT), could be particularely helpful in these procedures.
Endoscopic Characterization of Small Bowel Amyloidosis
Authors: A. Martinez-Alcalá, K. Pwalak, T. Kröner, L. Fry, K. Mönkemüller
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text This video demonstrates the endoscopic findings of small bowel amyloidosis, which are variable and include: erosions, ulcers, erythema, mucosal edema, purplish discoloration, lymphangiectasias, white lesions, nodularity and pseudotumors. The most efficient method for diagnosis is histology with enteroscopy and histology, also utilizing Congo red stain. Because there are other diseases leading to small bowel ulcers a high index of suspicion is mandatory, otherwise the diagnosis will be missed or delayed.

Authors: E. Maderuelo Gonzalez, J. Santiago Garcia, S. Wang, E. C. Abad Izquierdo, D. de Frutos, E. Llop Herrera, H.D. T. Alberto, J. L. Calleja Panero
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text A 61-year-old man, with stenosing ileocolonic Crohn's Disease who refused medical treatment and clinical follow-up, was hospital admitted with a colonic obstruction secondary to a massive fecaloma impacted in the sigmoid colon. The patient was self-medicated with colestyramine due to persistent diarrhea. Endoscopic fragmentation and conservative measures (parenteral nutrition, oral and rectal laxatives) were firstly attempted with no success. A combined endoscopic approach, based on intra-fecaloma Coke injection using a 20G fine needle biopsy, followed by two snare-fragmentation sessions was then successfully performed. Bowel transist was restarted and surgical definitive intervention avoided [1] [2] [3].

Underwater peroral esophageal myotomy to prevent insufflation related complications
Authors: G. Luglio, P. Cecinato, F. Ciranni, F. Bassi, M. Di Marco, R. Sassatelli
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text A 64-yo man was referred to us for type-I achalasia. Underwater (UW) POEM was planned to minimize insufflation related complications due to patient COPD. We used a single-channel Fujifilm gastroscope, a distal cap and a Hybridknife-T-type. All the steps were performed after filling the lumen with saline: anterior mucosal incision (endocut-I); submucosal tunnel (endocut-Q or precise-SECT); myotomy (endocut-Q). No adverse events were reported. UW POEM reduces insufflation related adverse events. Water induced magnification improves the distinction between layers and vessels identification. Main limit observed was saline induced reduction of cutting efficiency, requiring electosurgical settings adjustments.

Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text A 29-year-old woman with a surgical history of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) for morbid obesity presented with obstructive jaundice and pancreatitis. All etiologies were excluded. Ca19.9 was 82.8 U/mL. CT-scan and EUS from the stomach showed a diffusely enlargement of pancreas with inhomogeneous echogenicity, without focal lesion, and splenomegaly. FNAB of the body was then performed with a 22G needle. Cytomorphology was suggestive of a lymphoproliferative disorder. Immunohistochemistry on cytology cell block showed atypical lymphoid cells positive for LCA, CD20, BCL6, and MUM1, and negative for CD10, with Ki67 positive tumor cells up to 90%. This pattern was consistent with a non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

Authors: G. Tribonias, G. Anagnostopoulos, N. Leontidis, M. Palatianou, G. Bellou, G. Penesis, I. Internos, E. Zacharopoulou, V. Vamvakousis, M. Tzouvala
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text A 46-year-old woman underwent EGD for iron deficiency anemia, during which a 70-mm SET was observed in the gastric cardia. It was decided to perform Endoscopic Subserosal Dissection (ESSD). Stepwise submucosal dissection was performed to create a small flap. Four clips were placed to grasp a snare to the lesion in order to achieve an appropriate multipoint strong countertraction. At this point, dissection could be performed easily, with good visualization. The defect was closed by a combination of Endoloop and clips with no adverse events. Histopathologic assessment confirmed a leiomyoma.

EUS-guided gastroduodenostomy for malignant gastric outlet obstruction
Authors: P. Macinga, J. Jarosova, A. Hujova, J. Spicak, T. Hucl
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text 69-year-old patient with a history of right hepatectomy with hepaticojejunostomy for cholangio-carcinoma and PTD for jaundice for cancer recurrence presented at our department with vomiting and epigastric pain. Gastroscopy revealed a tight but passable stricture of the duodenal bulb, presumably due to tumorous infiltration of the surrounding tissue. Pneumatic dilation did not relieve symptoms and the patient was indicated for EUS-guided GE. Contrast visualization of the small bowel showed dislocation of the jejunal loop in the right upper abdominal quadrant, making it inaccessible for anastomosis. For this reason, LAMS has been placed between antrum and the descending part of the duodenum with both technical and clinical success.
